into place

oh so busy. I think we're all feeling the season. much anticipated. such a hectic part of the year. my to-do list grows. my time dwindles. my ambition soars. my anxiety with it.

but today at Trust Tending, Kristen calms my spirit with her message.

and I wonder whether this word might be one you could use, too: that right where you are is the only place you can be. and just because you're facing challenges or frustrations or exhaustion or grief or rage or any other uncomfortable thing you can name does not diminish the fact that right here ... just exactly where you are ... holds value. and beauty. and feeling a rightness to where I am.

deep breaths please. all in good. due. time.

'falling leaves
hide the path
so quietly'
